The Arthropod and Nematode Biology and Management CAP will focus on the decline of managed bee pollinators. This program will solicit a community of researchers, extension specialists and/or educators focusing on an existing or emerging issue at the national level on the biology and management of arthropods or nematodes, and which is poised to lead to practical management solutions for pests or beneficial species. Applicants are strongly encouraged to read the entire Program Description section for current priorities and additional information relative to the program of interest. Please carefully review the RFA guidelines to ensure application acceptance.

Arthropod polyphyly was popularized by Sidnie Manton. Although a popular view for a while, and still found in many zoology textbooks even today, as well as widely on the Web, it's basic premise - that of three distinct phyla (see above cladogram), is no longer considered tenable by most researchers in the field of high-level arthropod systematics. The consensus is now that arthropods are monophyletic, but the exact order of relationships is in dispute (ref). it seems like every possible alternative has been offered (left - from Giribet and Ribera 2000).
